Welcome to Utility Mapping Training School!

The Industry's #1 Online GIS Training Program for Utility Locators, Surveyors, & Engineers

Major Problems in the Industry That Spark

In 2019 alone, between the US and Canada, 400,000+ utility damage incidents were reported, resulting in a societal impact of $30,000,000,000. That's a problem. Incorrect and inaccurate facility records are one of the leading root causes of these damages. Over the lifespan of a utility, facility, & private property, original as-builts become old, outdated, inaccurate, and missing. This leads to unmarked utilities & damages. Technology is moving faster than the textbooks & teachers can keep up. With continuous research & development, our training program bridges the gap.

About This Training Program

This online training program teaches students how to map and manage utility data using advanced integrated surveying and GIS technology. With lifetime access to course material and videos, students will quickly discover and master the process of converting GPS and total station files to GIS and CAD datasets and deliverables using simple web and desktop software, and then build 2D PDF maps and 3D web-based mapping applications to access and share utility maps and data online in a secure and private cloud GIS environment.

This utility mapping training offers a workflow to transform your utility mapping services and deliverables. This training will walk your team through sample projects demonstrating how to collect high accuracy GPS data using mobile software, GNSS receivers, & total stations, import data into free desktop GIS software, digitize and map utilities, organize data for cloud GIS software, create 3D visualizations and web-based mobile mapping applications, and integrate data with Augmented Reality software to visualize utilities in AR on your smartphone, in the field.

If you can locate utilities, you can and should be surveying and mapping them to add value, increase revenue, and drive business growth opportunities. Everything your team needs to know in order to get started mapping utilities is in this online training program.
